Power Flow and Static Voltage Stability Improvement using TCSC and SVC

Restructuring of electricity markets is adding new complexities due to the presence of large number of market players. The congestion in transmission lines is one such effect born out of restructuring exercise. Mitigation of congestion was easier in vertically integrated utilities but this is more complex in restructured system. This paper examines the effect of TCSC and SVC in improvement of power flow and voltage stability enhancement in a power network. The proposal has been tested on IEEE-14 bus system.
